==Version==
==Version==
The current version is 14.04 and newly released 16.04 is also available
The first Ubuntu release coincided with the release of Ubuntu 5.10, which was codenamed Breezy Badger on 2005-10-13. With the 8.04 Hardy Heron release of Ubuntu it was given the name of Ubuntu Education Edition[5] and was changed to be an add-on to a standard Ubuntu installation instead of being an installable LiveCD. From version 9.10 onwards, Ubuntu changed to be available as a full system DVD instead of an Add-on CD.[6] Ubuntu is also installable[7] via a selection of "Ubuntu" packages for all distributions using the official Ubuntu repositories (Ubuntu and Kubuntu mainly).
Since 14.04, Ubuntu has become LTS-only;[8] Ubuntu have announced that they will skip Ubuntu 16.04 LTS update. And they plan on staying with 14.04 due to lack of contributors.

Processor: of 1ghz or above<br>
Memory: 512MB of RAM (1GB recommended)<br>
Disk: 20GB of disk space depending on options<br>

==Overview of Features==
Ubuntu is the Linux Terminal Server Project and many applications relevant to education including GCompris, KDE Edutainment Suite, Sabayon Profile Manager, Pessulus Lockdown Editor, Ubuntu Menueditor, LibreOffice, Gnome Nanny and iTalc. Ubuntu CDs were previously available free of charge through their Shipit service; since version 8.10 (2008) it is only available as a download in a DVD format.
Edubuntu's default GUI is Unity while GNOME is still available.[1] Unity has been the default GUI since the release of 12.04. Since release 7.10, KDE is also available as Ubuntu KDE. In 2010 Ubuntu and the Qimo 4 Kids project were working on providing Qimo within Ubuntu,[2] but this was not done as it would not have fitted on a CD.

|style="width: 50%;|Step 2- 3.2 Creating and managing files and folders
When you write an essay or paint something on a paper, you would like to keep it for future, right? You would probably put it in a hard bound folder. Maybe, if you have more than one essay or painting, you would have one folder to hold your essays and one folder to hold your paintings.
